January Glam Bag (Ipsy)

After stalking my mailman for a week, I finally got my first Ispy Glam Bag.  Ipsy is a monthly subscription were for $10 a month you receive a bag of 5 beauty items which are deluxe samples and/or full size items. My mom signed me up for a year in December as a birthday gift. Its going to be like its my birthday every month, which is awesome! I thought I would give you all my thoughts on this months bag.



The bag itself is alright. The outside is just a plain blueish black. Inside is cuter. It is blue with white stars. Decent size.

The first item is a Nailtini nail polish. I got the color frappe, a  neutral with slight pink. I had been hoping for the red polish called bloody mary (the other option).  I have a few neutral polishes already and since I tend not to wear them that often, the nail polish was a bit disappointing. Also, even with a top coat I found that it chipped more than some of my other polishes. 


Next we have Pacifica Tuscan Blood Orange Body Butter. I have a ton of lotions so I didn't really need more. However it has been super cold and my skin has been super dry so having the extra moisture of a body butter is definitely needed. Plus this smells super yummy and it is a great size for my purse.


Then when have SOHO "Get a Grip" Concealer Brush. I had been hoping for the Eyeliner or Crease brush, the other two options. I tired using the concealer brush but it didn't really work with the concealer I am using at the moment. I find that using my fingers works better. I don't mind getting a makeup brush though since my collection of makeup brushes is small. I may end up using this brush for something other than concealer down the road.

Next is Joise Moron 100% Argan Oil. I have never really used oils so this product is exciting to try. So far I have only used it once, so I don't have a real opinion yet other than I am looking forward to using it more.

Lastly we have Sexy Hair Spray and Play Volumizing Hair Spray. I mostly use a little bit of hairspray when I want to keep flyaway hair down. I have never been a big hairspray person. However I am excited to try (I haven't tried it yet) this hairspray when I want to have some extra volume in my hair.

So that was January's Glam Bag. Overall not to bad of a bag. Super excited to see what is in February's Glam Bag.  Hoping for some makeup items.

Till next time,
Amber
